I plan on playing games such as Battlefield 3, Arma II and other demanding games, but on a tight £700-£800 budget. Would this be an appropriate build? (I know there is no OS. The site doesn't offer Windows 8 presently).

If not, what should be changed? Please, if possible, make it fit within my budget.

Thanks :)

Not bad spec although I feel your case is rather large for a M-ATX build but that is more of a personal choice as it is you that needs to look at it.

I prefer to include a smallish (128GB) SSD for operating system and programs.

I would stick with an OEM of Windows 7 rather than 8 as it is a lot better/simpler to use,in my opinion. Ebuyer.
